Source (Arabic)
إنّك لم تزل كنت مظهر الأسمآء والصّفات ومسرح لحظات مالك الأرضین والسّموات قد ورد علیك ما ورد علی التّابوت الّذی كانت فیه السّكینة طوبی لمن یعرف لحن القول فیما أراد مالك البریّة
Shoghi Effendi Translation
Thou art still the symbol of the names and attributes of the Almighty, the Point towards which the eyes of the Lord of earth and heaven are directed. There hath befallen thee what hath befallen the Ark in which God’s pledge of security had been made to dwell. Well is it with him that apprehendeth the intent of these words, and recognizeth the purpose of Him Who is the Lord of all creation.
